Feeling stuck on autopilot or burned out? Ready to deepen your self-awareness and explore the parts of yourself that don’t fit neatly into the box? My practice offers a safe, nonjudgmental space to heal and grow — rooted in curiosity, acceptance, and possibility.
I specialize in trauma-informed care, blending cognitive, somatic, and mindfulness approaches to help you challenge old patterns, release what’s been stuck, and step into life with more clarity and presence. Together, we’ll examine the stories and expectations holding you back and create space for new ways of being.
With 25+ years of experience, I bring evidence-based tools, deep compassion, and a creative, open-minded spirit to support lasting change. Whether you’re seeking connection with yourself, your body, your relationships, or your community, this is a place where your whole self is welcome.
